Noël chez les Mitchell !

Listen, if you're watching Hallmark Christmas movies expecting them to be Citizen Kane, you need to stop watching. BUT, when they get it right, they are fun, idyllic and take you away from reality for a couple of hours. Of course they're formulaic. The Christmas House is fun, and formulaic. However, finally, Hallmark has shown that all families do not look the same. It is so nice to see the LGBTQ community represented, and not in a funny best friend way. Rather, as it should be, just like everyone else. It made me so happy to see this, and I applaud Hallmark for realizing the importance of representation. Is it my favorite Hallmark Christmas movie? Nope, but, I will remember it nonetheless. Well done.

Not the usual Hallmark movie, it's refreshing. Kudos to the writing and teleplay teams and the great casting. The usual Hallmark is a formulaic focus on a single woman who finds romance, it's soapy and can be sickly sweet. This is about a family, actually three families, a house and cultures and real life. Kudos to Hallmark.

I was excited to watch the first Hallmark Christmas movie with gay couple (though I recall a lesbian couple in a recent one...). This is a feel good family movie with various subplots. The newly retired parents have grown apart, the actor son has career issues, and the younger, gay son and his husband are trying to adopt a baby. They all converge to put on a crazy, over-decorated house that's open to the public like they did years ago. Nice, feel good movie. I really enjoyed the inclusion of an LGBT storyline and that the couple was just a normal part of the family. Well done, Hallmark!

Sweet and cute Hallmark movie, one of the better ones in the recent past. The cast is very good and Robert Buckley is so likeable in the lead and he co-wrote the story!

I see hallmark is adding some diversity changes which I like finally we get some representation. We see gay couples abs latinas on screen and screw the haters this is 2020 where lgbtq is acceptable and your hate is going nowhere. This movie was lovely with all the Christmas elements
